[Bug 48146] Re: Poor font rendering in kpdf
I fond the origin of the problem and a solution. The rendering propblem occurs when you have all of the following: 1. TrueType bytecode interpreter enabled in the freetype library. (This is a compile-time option which is off by default due to patent issues, Ubuntu turns it on while Fedora does not.) 2. Kpdf using anti-aliasing. (No idea where this is configured, maybe from the global KDE setting). 3. A pdf file with embedded bitmapped (or maybe any non-TrueType) fonts. This is typical for pdfs generated by TeX. When all of this happens, kpdf uses its own (or KDE's) anti-aliasing *and* freetype's autohinting. Each of the features is supposed to improve the view but their combination works poorly. A solution is to turn off the check for bytecode interpreter in kpdf. On Ubuntu, this piece of code actually lives in libpoppler which is a separate package. The attached patch to poppler fixes the problem for me. I don't know if it breaks something else. I checked evince and it does not seem to be affected. The same file is present in kpdf source. It should be patched there if kpdf is compiled without poppler. ** Attachment added: disable freetype's autohinting when anti-aliasing http://launchpadlibrarian.net/20554242/hinting.patch -- Poor font rendering in kpdf https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/48146 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
[Bug 48146] Re: Poor font rendering in kpdf
I observe this bug too, both in kpdf (hardy) and okular (intrepid). Rendering is especially bad for Cyrillic fonts in pdfs generated by TeX (I guess this is because these fonts are bitmapped) but the problem is visible with latin fonts too. This bug annoyed me for a long time and I spent some time investigating it (with KDE3 on hardy) Rendering is good in Opensuse 10.3 and in Fedora 8. I narrowed the difference down to the file /usr/lib/kde3/libkpdfpart.so. Copying this file from Fedora to Ubuntu fixes the problem. I thought that the difference is due to compile-time options or patches but this is not the case. I compiled kdegraphics-3.5.10 (the upstream source with no patches) via 'configure make' on the two systems. On Fedora, this compilation produced a good binary. On Ubuntu, it produced a bad binary. (The binaries were tested by copying the file libkpdfpart.so to the Ubuntu system and running kpdf, so it's not a matter of not having some library in the system). I am trying to investigate the issue futher.

Re: [Bug 98955] Re: logd not running
i cant make the buffer big enough to log it all. my boot process takes 23 seconds and the biggest buffer that i can get to work is 975kb (999,999 bytes) which will only log 18 seconds. This is a strange constant. The 32-bit integer overflows near 2Gb. What is wrong with larger values? Doesn't the program compile, or doesn't it start? Do you measure the 18 seconds by the wall clock or by the timestamps in the log file? I'm not a great expert in bootlogd, but I thought that the internal buffer is used until /var is writeable, then it writes directly to the file. So if a buffer in bootlogd overflows *after* /var is made writeable, then this is a bug in bootlogd. Otherwise there is no way other than enlarging the buffer - it has to remember the messages somewhere until the disk is ready. also is there a way to log the shutdown messages? This is hard. You cannot save anything after the filesystems are unmounted.

[Bug 188950] [NEW] kmail composer uses wrong name for ibm866 charset
Public bug reported: Kmail composer understands the ibm866 charset but uses ibm 866 (with a space!) as its name in outgoing mail. This is incorrect, and other mail clients are confused by this space. I was hit by this when I received a mail with charset=ibm866, replied to it, and recipients could not read the reply because Kmail tried to use the same charset when replying but wrote 'charset=ibm 866' in the header. To reproduce: In Kmail, go to Settings - Composer - Charset, try to add ibm866 to the list. It adds ibm 866 instead. Or, alternatively: Make sure the option Keep original charset when replying ... (in the same menu) is checked. Get a mail with charset=ibm866 (for example, create a simple ascii mail and edit Content-Type: field by hand). Reply to this mail and view the reply as plain text. It has Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ibm 866 The clients that cannot read this include (some versions of) SquirrelMail, MS Outlook Express, The Bat. I am using Gutsy, kmail version is 4:3.5.7enterprise20070926-0ubuntu2.

If my copy-pasting broke the patch, see the attached one here. It still works for me, now with kdelibs-3.5.8-0ubuntu3.2. I apply it before running anything from debian/rules.

Re: [Bug 98955] Re: logd not running
Yes, I sure understand that you don't want to be a maintainer for it, that would probably be quite a lot of work. For me the [ok] comes on it's own separate: Sun Jan 27 21:52:32 2008: * Starting system message bus dbus Sun Jan 27 21:52:32 2008: [ OK ] Is this intentional? Otherwise this seems much nicer than before. Well, bootlogd *has* a maintainer, it's Debian sysvinit team. Maybe I'll send the fixes there some day. The OK placement is yes, sort of intentional. They use a lot of terminal trickery to make output look better, and logging it correctly would require many changes to the code. I had to choose from a couple of simple rules, and the other choices led to worse results. After all, this OK is a separate message and its timing may be useful. You can make it appear on the same line by changing the source as follows. Go to bootlog.c line 361, there will be a part of switch like this: case '\n': case '\r: ... Change it to: case '\r': break; case '\n': ... (that is, interchange the two cases and insert break; between them). But then you will lose, among other things, the summary of a long fsck run (it will be truncated as a part of one extra long line). -- logd not running https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/98955 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Re: [Bug 98955] Re: logd not running
To tekknokrat. You can try out the attached source package. This is bootlogd alone, separated from gutsy's sysvinit. I fixed logging of terminal codes and some other minor issues. It works for me here (Ubuntu stock kernel, no usplash, no mounting of /var). You can build and install it with the following commands: tar xzvf bootlogd_2.86.01.tar.gz # unpack the source cd bootlogd-2.86.01 debuild -us -uc -b # build the package cd .. sudo dpkg -i bootlogd_2.86.01_*.deb # install the package Please note that I am not an Ubuntu developer and the package is not official in any way. So it is a good measure to audit it before installing. In the long run, I agree that we should wait for a boot logging support in upstart.

Re: [Bug 98955] Re: logd not running
I think there is a good reason that they are not using bootlogd by default. I think I read somewhere that bootlogd is quite buggy on some systems, and it is hard to make it work correctly the way it is designed. So the proper fix in the long run would be to redesign it completely, as Scott is intending to do with logd in the future. I don't remember where I read this however... Probably tekknokrat ran into one of those problems. No, that error (cannot find console device 136:1) means that bootlogd was run from a terminal emulator (xterm or screen or mc or ... ). It must be run from a real console device. Passing console=/dev/console to the kernel is an error. I think the correct value is /dev/tty0 or /dev/tty1. And bootlogd will use something like this anyway. I have another problem with bootlogd. It gets confused by terminal control codes (those that make screen output prettier). I'll try to look at the source and see what can be done. -- logd not running https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/98955 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 184675] kate does not show newline inserted at the beginning
Public bug reported:
This was already reported as bug #146306 (which is closed as
unreproducible). I have this issue on Gutsy with current kdelibs
(kdelibs4c2a-3.5.8-0ubuntu3.1).
To reproduce: run Kate on a file with more lines than kate's window has
(this is essential), then hit Enter at the beginning of the file. Kate
inserts a line but does not display it (until you hit Uparrow or
something similar).
This also happens if it is not the beginning of the file but the
beginning of the visible part. You can hit Enter several times and still
see no effect (as if the key did not work). Same behavior with Kile
instead of Kate.
The bug was introduced at some point between KDE 3.5.5 and KDE 3.5.8.
The following patch fixes it.

Please reopen this bug. I have it here on Gutsy with KDE 3.5.8. Package versions: kdelibs4c2a-3.5.8-0ubuntu3.1, kate-3.5.8-0ubuntu3.1.

[Bug 98955] Re: logd not running
I think that using the old bootlogd is the right fix. It seems that bootlogd and logd can and should coexist on the same system (of course, if they write to different logfiles). They just serve different purposes. Bootlogd is to save everything sent to /dev/console. It does not know who writes what. It can start and exit any time, and scripts do not notice any change (no SIGPIPESs, no failed IO, no nothing). This is the right tool for the problem what did that scrolled-away messages say?. Logd is heavier. It uses redirected output of these scripts. This allows to log them separately, but at a price: it is not transparent (a process can detect that its stdout is a socket), and it is must run forever (or at least be extremely careful with those redirected file descriptors, as they could be even passed on to daemons). It can be useful for problems like which of these scripts issued this message? And normally the answer should be clear even from the mixed output, so I would consider logd as a tool for special cases. So my suggestion is to add bootlogd to the system and use logd (once it is working properly) as an additional tool when needed. Sorry if my analysis is incorrect, I'm not an expert. Maybe some developer can comment on this further. -- logd not running https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/98955 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
